lyrics

Verse 1:

Her lips are painted scarlet red
She drapes herself in olive green
The smell of thunder in the air—it’s Marguerite

Some fools are brawling in the street
She marks her gaze to restore their peace
The boys are whipped like French buttercream—for Marguerite

Chorus:

Marguerite
Bodacious beauty
Supersedes all fantasy
Marguerite
One day I’ll be like Marguerite
Marguerite—scarlet red, olive green (x3)

Verse 2:

One day, I begged to join her side
She replied, “Hell yeah, I’ll be your guide!
“First, leave your hang-ups at your feet
You’re with Marguerite.”

We lounged around and broke some wind
Stuffed our faces ‘til we burst at the seams
Cuz’ when you make life so carefree, everyone’s intrigued

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:

And when I finally bloomed and thrived
It was time to say good-bye
She said, “Look for the pale, pink moon in the sky – there’s Marguerite.”

Repeat Chorus
